Part 9/13:
Marshall demonstrates a rare technical fluency, showcasing how he manipulates effects. For example, he uses the Microcosm to create lo-fi textures, granular delays, and glitch effects tailored for specific moments in his set. He underscores that while he’s only scratching the surface of its potential live, the Microcosm allows him to explore textures and atmospheres—on stage and for studio use.
He also incorporates traditional effects—fuzz, modulation, and tube screamer pedals—within this digital landscape, blending analog warmth with digital precision. His use of a Tensor tape looper pedal introduces controlled chaos into the live performance, adding unpredictability that complements complex textures.
